This repository contains patches (and ruby tarballs) which provide enhanced runtime support to allow beautiful, feature-rich debuggers or profilers for Ruby 1.9.x or 2.x. Some of the patches are useful for other things as well.
A debugger which makes use of all of these features is https://github.com/rocky/rb-trepanning.
Features
- a call frame object (RubyVM::Frame)
- support for fast debugger breakpoints, "step over" and "step out"
- access to instruction sequences at runtime
- access inside Ruby to VM registers
- More accurate location information
- access to C parameters in a C call
- memory addresses of C functions (useful in conjunction with gdb)
- seeing and changing event filters dynamically
